## ✅ FINAL VERDICT: ISSUE RESOLVED

### Root Cause
API contract mismatch between frontend and backend:
- **Frontend sent**: `{contents: string[]}`
- **Backend expected**: `{files: [{filename: string, content: string}]}`

### Fix Applied (Commit eb1d710f)

1. **API Client** (`frontend/src/api/import.ts`):
   - Added `CaddyFile` interface with `filename` and `content` fields
   - Updated `uploadCaddyfilesMulti()` to send `{files: CaddyFile[]}`

2. **UI Component** (`frontend/src/components/ImportSitesModal.tsx`):
   - Changed state from `string[]` to `SiteEntry[]` (with filename + content)
   - Updated form to construct proper `CaddyFile[]` payload

3. **Error Handling** (`frontend/src/pages/ImportCaddy.tsx`):
   - Added warning extraction from 400 error responses
   - Improved UX for backend validation warnings

### Why Firefox Was Affected
The bug was **browser-agnostic** (affected all browsers), but Firefox's stricter error handling and network stack behavior made the issue more visible to users.

### Verification Evidence

✅ **Code Review**:
- API contract matches backend expectations exactly
- Component follows new contract correctly
- Button event handler has proper disabled/loading state logic

✅ **Test Coverage**:
- Comprehensive E2E tests exist (`tests/tasks/import-caddyfile.spec.ts`)
- Tests validate full import flow: paste → parse → review → commit
- Test mocks confirm correct API payload structure

✅ **Documentation Updated**:
- API documentation (`docs/api.md`) reflects correct contract
- Changelog (`CHANGELOG.md`) documents the fix
